A federal judge has ruled that Florida’s transgender health care ban discriminates against state employees and violates their civil rights.
Chief U.S. District Judge Mark Walker ruled Thursday that the state’s ban violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which protects employees and job applicants from employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin.
The lawsuit was filed in 2020 by three current and former state employees against the Florida Department of Management Services. The employees had challenged the denial of medically necessary treatment for their gender dysphoria under the state’s categorical exclusion of coverage for “gender reassignment or modification services or supplies.”
And what source do you recommend that is more accurate?
I dunno, but when it marks the AP and Reuters and…The Internet Archive as “Center-Left” - its current source clearly has very little value.
It’s because the Overton window has shifted so far right that neutral reporting is now considered center-left. And even when factual reporting is high, it’s still possible to be biased because of what stories you choose to report on. For instance, maybe a news source is extremely accurate and adds very little opinion, but exclusively reports on topics that are on one side of the spectrum.
